雙語(yǔ)散文之狼的傳說(shuō)

雙語(yǔ)散文:狼的傳說(shuō)

　A Wolf’s Tale

　With all her big brothers and sisters off to school, our ranch became a lonely place for our three-year-old daughter, Becky. She longed for playmates. Cattle and horses were too big to cuddle and farm machinery dangerous for a child so small. We promised to buy her a puppy but in the meantime, “Pretend” puppies popped up nearly every day.

　I had just finished washing the lunch dishes when the screen door slammed and Becky rushed in, cheeks flushed with excitement. “Mama!” she cried, “Come see my new doggy! I gave him water two times already. He’s so thirsty!”

　I sighed, another of Becky’s imaginary dogs.

　“Please come, Mama.” She tugged at my jeans, her brown eyes pleading, “He’s crying ― and he can’t walk!”

　“Can’t walk?” Now that was a twist. All her previous make-believe dogs could do marvelous things. One balanced a ball on the end of its nose. Another dug a hole that went all the way through the earth and fell out on a star on the other side. Still another danced on a tightrope. Why suddenly a dog that couldn’t walk?

　“All right, honey,” I said. By the time I tried to follow her, Becky had already disappeared into the mesquite.

　“Where are you?” I called.

　“Over here by the oak stump. Hurry, Mama!”

　I parted the thorny branches and raised my hand against the glare of the Arizona sun. A numbing chill gripped me. There she was, sitting on her heels, toes dug firmly in the sand, and cradled in her lap was the unmistakable head of a wolf! Beyond its head rose massive black shoulders. The rest of the body lay completely hidden inside the hollow stump of a fallen oak.

　“Becky,” My mouth felt dry. “Don’t move.” I stepped closer. Pale-yellow eyes narrowed. Black lips tightened, exposing double sets of two-inch fangs. Suddenly the wolf trembled. Its teeth clacked, and a piteous whine rose from its throat.

　“It’s all right, boy,” Becky crooned. “Don’t be afraid. That’s my mama, and she loves you, too.”

　Then the unbelievable happened. As her tiny hands stroked the great shaggy head, I heard the gentle thump, thump, thumping of the wolf’s tail from deep inside the stump. What was wrong with the animal? I wondered. Why couldn’t he get up? I couldn’t tell. Nor did I dare to step any closer.

　I glanced at the empty water bowl. My memory flashed back to the five skunks that last week had torn the burlap from a leaking pipe in a frenzied effort to reach water during the final agonies of rabies. Of course! Rabies! Warning signs had been posted all over the county, and hadn’t Becky said, “He’s so thirsty?” I had to get Becky away.

　“Honey,” My throat tightened. “Put his head down and come to Mama. We’ll go find help.”

　Reluctantly, Becky got up and kissed the wolf on the nose before she walked slowly into my outstretched arms. Sad yellow eyes followed her. Then the wolf’s head sank to the ground. With Becky safe in my arms, I ran to the barns where Brian, one of our cowhands, was saddling up to check heifers in the North pasture. “Brian! Come quickly. Becky found a wolf in the oak stump near the wash! I think it has rabies!”

　“I’ll be there in a jiffy,” he said as I hurried back to the house, eager to put Becky down for her nap. I didn’t want her to see Brian come out of the bunkhouse. I knew he’d have a gun.

　“But I want to give my doggy his water,” she cried. I kissed her and gave her some stuffed animals to play with.

　“Honey, let Mom and Brian take care of him for now,” I said. Moments later, I reached the oak stump.

　Brian stood looking down at the beast. “It’s a Mexican lobo, all right.” He said, “And a big one!”

　The wolf whined. Then we both caught the smell of gangrene. “Whew! It’s not rabies,” Brian said. “But he’s sure hurt real bad. Don’t you think it’s best I put him out of his misery?”

　The word “yes” was on my lips, when Becky emerged from the bushes. “Is Brian going to make him well, Mama?” She hauled the animal’s head onto her lap once more, and buried her face in the coarse, dark fur. This time I wasn’t the only one who heard the thumping of the lobo’s tail.

　That afternoon my husband, Bill, and our veterinarian came to see the wolf. Observing the trust the animal had in our child, Doc said to me, “Suppose you let Becky and me tend to this fella together.” Minutes later, as child and vet reassured the stricken beast, the hypodermic found its mark. The yellow eyes closed.

　“He’s asleep now,” said the vet. “Give me a hand here, Bill.” They hauled the massive body out of the stump. The animal must have been over five feet long and well over a hundred pounds. Bullets had mutilated the wolf’s hip and leg. Doc did what he had to in order to clean the wound and then gave the patient a dose of penicillin. Next day he returned and ed a metal rod to replace the missing bone.

　“Well, it looks like you’ve got yourselves a Mexican lobo,” Doc said. “He looks to be about three years old, and even as pups, they don’t tame real easy. I’m amazed at the way this big fella took to your little girl. But often there’s something that goes on between children and animals that we grownups don’t understand.”

　Becky named the wolf Ralph and carried food and water to the stump every day. Ralph’s recovery was not easy. For three months he dragged his injured hindquarters by clawing the earth with his front paws. From the way he lowered his eyelids when we massaged the limbs, we knew he endured excruciating pain, but not once did he ever try to bite the hands of those who cared for him.

　Four months to the day, Ralph finally stood unaided. His huge frame shook as long-unused muscles were activated. Bill and I patted and praised him. But it was Becky to whom he turned for a gentle word, a kiss or a smile. He responded to these gestures of love by swinging his busy tail like a pendulum. As his strength grew, Ralph followed Becky all over the ranch.

　Together they roamed the desert pastures, the golden-haired child often stooping low, sharing with the great lame wolf whispered secrets of nature’s wonders. When evening came, he returned like a silent shadow to his hollow stump that had surely become his special place.

　As time went on, although he lived primarily in the brush, the habits of this timid creature endeared him more and more to all of us. His reaction to people other than our family was yet another story. Strangers terrified him, yet his affection for and protectiveness of Becky brought him out of the desert and fields at the sight of every unknown pickup or car. Occasionally he’d approach, lips taut, exposing a nervous smile full of chattering teeth.

　More often he’d simply pace and finally skulk off to his tree stump, perhaps to worry alone.

　Becky’s first day of school was sad for Ralph. After the bus left, he refused to return to the yard. Instead, he lay by the side of the road and waited.

　When Becky returned, he limped and tottered in wild, joyous circles around her. This welcoming ritual persisted throughout her school years.

　Although Ralph seemed happy on the ranch, he disappeared into the surrounding deserts and mountains for several weeks during the spring mating season, leaving us to worry about his safety. This was calving season, and fellow ranchers watched for coyotes, cougars, wild dogs and, of course, the lone wolf. But Ralph was lucky.

　During Ralph’s twelve years on our ranch, his habits remained unchanged. Always keeping his distance, he tolerated other pets and endured the activities of our busy family, but his love for Becky never wavered.

　Then the spring came when our neighbor told us he’d shot and killed a she-wolf and grazed her mate, who had been running with her. Sure enough, Ralph returned home with another bullet wound. Becky, nearly fifteen years old now, sat with Ralph’s head resting on her lap. He, too, must have been about fifteen and was gray with age. As Bill removed the bullet, my memory raced back through the years. Once again I saw a chubby three-year-old girl stroking the head of a huge black wolf and heard a small voice murmuring, “It’s all right, boy. Don’t be afraid. That’s my mama, and she loves you, too.”

　Although the wound wasn’t serious, this time Ralph didn’t get well. Precious pounds fell away. The once luxurious fur turned dull and dry, and his trips to the yard in search of Becky’s companionship ceased. All day long he rested quietly. But when night fell, old and stiff as he was, he disappeared into the desert and surrounding hills. By dawn his food was gone. The morning came when we found him dead. The yellow eyes were closed.

　Stretched out in front of the oak stump, he appeared but a shadow of the proud beast he once had been. A lump in my throat choked me as I watched Becky stroke his shaggy neck, tears streaming down her face. “I’ll miss him so,” she cried.

　Then as I covered him with a blanket a strange rustling sound from inside the stump startled us. Becky looked inside. Two tiny yellow eyes peered back and puppy fangs glinted in the semidarkness. Ralph’s pup!

　Had a dying instinct told him his motherless offspring would be safe here, as he had been, with those who loved him? Hot tears spilled on baby fur as Becky gathered the trembling bundle in her arms.

　“It’s all right, little ... Ralphie,” she murmured. “Don’t be afraid. That’s my mom, and she loves you, too.”

　哥哥姐姐都去上學(xué)以后，對我們三歲的女兒貝基來(lái)說(shuō)，農場(chǎng)就成為一個(gè)寂寞的地方了。她渴望伙伴。牛馬太大了，她無(wú)法抱在懷里。農業(yè)機械對這么小的孩子也太危險。我們答應給她買(mǎi)個(gè)寵物，不過(guò)同時(shí)，“虛構”的寵物每天都會(huì )出現。

　我剛洗完午飯的盤(pán)子，紗窗門(mén)就砰地被撞開(kāi)，貝基跑了進(jìn)來(lái)，興奮地滿(mǎn)臉通紅?！皨寢?”她叫著(zhù)，“快來(lái)看看我的新狗狗!我已經(jīng)喂他兩次水了，他都快渴死了!”

　我嘆息了一聲，又是一只貝基虛構的小狗。

　“來(lái)呀，媽媽?！彼箘磐现?zhù)我的牛仔褲，棕色的眼睛里透出乞求的眼神?！八恢痹诮楔D―他還不會(huì )走路呢!”

　“不會(huì )走路?”這倒是一個(gè)預想不到的變化。她以前編造的狗狗都會(huì )做令人驚異的事情。其中一只會(huì )在鼻尖上平穩地頂著(zhù)一個(gè)球不讓它掉下來(lái)，另一只挖洞穿越了地球，從另一端掉到星球上去了，還有一只在能在鋼絲上跳舞。怎么突然有了一只不會(huì )走路的狗狗呢?

　“好吧，寶貝?！蔽艺f(shuō)。還來(lái)不及跟上她呢，貝基就已經(jīng)消失在豆科灌木叢中了。

　“你在哪兒啊?”我喊道。

　“就在橡樹(shù)樁這兒?？禳c(diǎn)呀媽媽!”

　我撥開(kāi)帶刺的枝葉，抬手遮住亞利桑那州的太陽(yáng)。突然一種麻木的寒戰擢緊了我。她就在那兒，蹲坐在腳后跟上，腳尖陷進(jìn)沙子里，緊抱在腿上的明明是一只狼的腦袋!腦袋下面是巨大的黑色肩膀。身體的其他部位完全隱藏在一顆倒下的橡樹(shù)的中空的樹(shù)樁中。

　“貝基，”我覺(jué)得嘴里發(fā)干，“不要動(dòng)?！蔽易呓恍?。淡**的眼睛瞇起來(lái)了，黑色的嘴唇繃緊了，露出兩排兩寸長(cháng)的犬牙。突然，狼有些戰栗。牙齒噼啪作響，喉嚨里發(fā)出令人憐憫的哀鳴。

　“沒(méi)關(guān)系，寶貝，”貝基輕柔地安慰他?！安灰ε?，那是我的媽媽?zhuān)矏?ài)你?！?/p>

　接著(zhù)令人難以置信的事情發(fā)生了。當她的小手撫摸那顆碩大而毛發(fā)粗濃的腦袋時(shí)，我聽(tīng)到從樹(shù)根深處傳來(lái)狼尾巴的輕微撞擊聲，砰，砰，砰!這個(gè)動(dòng)物到底怎么了?我感到奇怪。為何他站不起來(lái)?我不知道，也不敢再朝前邁一步。

　我瞟了一眼空空的盛水的碗，我立刻想起了上周在從一個(gè)漏管子中咬破粗麻布掙扎著(zhù)要到達水邊的經(jīng)歷著(zhù)最后痛苦的患狂犬病的五只臭鼬。是的!狂犬病!全國都張貼了這種警告標志，貝基不也說(shuō)過(guò) “他快渴死了” 嗎?我必須讓貝基離開(kāi)。

　“寶貝，”我的喉嚨變緊了，“把他的頭放下，到媽媽這兒來(lái)。我們得去求助?！?/p>

　貝基很不情愿地站起來(lái)，又在狼的鼻子上親了一下，才慢慢走進(jìn)我的懷抱中。悲哀的黃眼睛跟隨著(zhù)她。接著(zhù)它的腦袋就墮落到了地上?？吹截惢踩鼗氐搅宋业膽驯?，我趕緊向牲口棚跑去。我們的牧牛工布賴(lài)恩正要備馬去北方牧場(chǎng)查看小母牛?！安假?lài)恩!快來(lái)。貝基在洼地附近的橡樹(shù)樁發(fā)現了一匹狼!我想它一定染上了狂犬病?！?/p>

　“我馬上去，”他說(shuō)。我趕緊回到屋里，希望貝基能快點(diǎn)午睡。我不想讓她看到布賴(lài)恩從簡(jiǎn)易住處中出來(lái)，我知道他有**。

　“但我想給狗狗喝水，”她哭起來(lái)。我吻了吻她，給她一些填充玩具讓她玩。

　“寶貝兒，現在讓媽媽和布賴(lài)恩去照料他?！蔽艺f(shuō)。片刻之后，我又來(lái)到橡樹(shù)樁那里。

　布賴(lài)恩站在那里看了一會(huì )這個(gè)野獸?！斑@確實(shí)是墨西哥大灰狼?！彼a充互說(shuō)，“而且是個(gè)大個(gè)?！?/p>

　狼發(fā)出哀叫聲。接著(zhù)我們都聞到了壞疽的味道?！皢?不是狂犬病，”布賴(lài)恩說(shuō)?！暗隙ㄊ芰酥貍?。你覺(jué)得我結束他的痛苦不是最好的嗎?”

　我馬上就要說(shuō)出“是的”，這時(shí)貝基從灌木叢中出現了?！安假?lài)恩會(huì )把他治好的，是嗎媽媽?”她把狼腦袋又拖到自己的腿上，把臉埋進(jìn)粗糙而缺乏光亮的毛皮中。這次不僅我一個(gè)人聽(tīng)到了大灰狼尾巴的砰砰聲。

　那天下午我的丈夫比爾和我們的獸醫來(lái)看望狼?？吹竭@只動(dòng)物對我們孩子的信任，醫生對我說(shuō)，“你就讓貝基和我一起照管他吧?！?/p>

　“他現在睡著(zhù)了，”獸醫說(shuō)?！氨葼?，幫我一下忙?！彼麄円黄鸢牙浅林氐纳眢w從樹(shù)樁中拉出來(lái)。他至少得有五英尺長(cháng)，一百多磅。子彈傷害了他的臀部和腿部。醫生為了清洗傷口做了該做的一切，又為這匹受傷的狼服了一劑青霉素。第二天他又來(lái)了，嵌入一根金屬棒來(lái)代替失去的骨頭。

　“哎呀，看來(lái)你們得到的是只墨西哥大灰狼，”醫生說(shuō)?！八磥?lái)差不多有3歲了，即便是幼崽，他們也不太容易馴服。令我驚異的是這個(gè)大家伙對你家小女孩的方式。不過(guò)常常孩子和動(dòng)物之間會(huì )發(fā)生一些我們成人無(wú)法理解的事情?！?/p>

　貝基給這匹狼取了個(gè)名字叫拉爾夫，每天都把食物和水送到樹(shù)樁那里。拉爾夫康復起來(lái)并不容易。三個(gè)月來(lái)，他都用前爪扒著(zhù)地，拖著(zhù)受傷的后腿部分移動(dòng)。但當我們給他按摩萎縮的肢體時(shí)，從他搭拉下眼皮的方式我們知道他經(jīng)受著(zhù)極度的痛苦，然而他從沒(méi)有試圖咬過(guò)照顧他的人的手。

　到今天就四個(gè)月了，拉爾夫終于獨立地站立起來(lái)。當長(cháng)期未活動(dòng)的肌肉活躍起來(lái)，他龐大的體格有些搖晃。比爾和我輕輕拍了拍他，對他加以贊揚。但他卻轉向了貝基以得到一句溫柔的話(huà)、一個(gè)吻或者一個(gè)微笑。他則像個(gè)鐘擺似的頻繁搖著(zhù)尾巴回應她愛(ài)的表示。隨著(zhù)他的力量的慢慢恢復，拉爾夫跟著(zhù)貝基在整個(gè)農場(chǎng)里逛游。

　他們一起在荒涼的牧場(chǎng)上漫游，金發(fā)孩子常常俯下身來(lái)，輕聲細語(yǔ)地與龐大的瘸腿大灰狼分享大自然的秘密奇觀(guān)。夜晚來(lái)臨時(shí)，他就像一個(gè)寂靜的影子一樣返回那個(gè)中空的樹(shù)樁，那里理所當然成為他的專(zhuān)用地方。

　隨著(zhù)時(shí)間的流逝，盡管他主要生活在灌木叢中，這個(gè)羞怯的動(dòng)物的習性卻讓我們越來(lái)越喜歡他了。他對我們家人之外的人的反應自然又不同了。陌生人使他感到害怕，然而每次看到不熟悉的小貨車(chē)或汽車(chē)時(shí)他對貝基的友愛(ài)與保護都讓他走出荒地和田野。偶爾他也會(huì )走近，雙唇繃緊，牙齒打戰，露出一個(gè)緊張的微笑。

　更多的時(shí)候他只是踱步，最后又偷偷回到他的樹(shù)樁那兒，也許要獨自不安。

　貝基第一天上學(xué)對拉爾夫來(lái)說(shuō)是個(gè)悲傷的日子。公共汽車(chē)離開(kāi)后，他拒絕回到院子里，而是待在路邊等她回來(lái)。

　貝基回來(lái)后，他狂熱而快樂(lè )地圍著(zhù)她一瘸一拐地打轉。她整個(gè)上學(xué)期間他都一直堅持用這種歡迎儀式。

　盡管拉爾夫在農場(chǎng)顯得很高興，當春天交配季節來(lái)臨時(shí)，他在附近的荒原和山上消失了好幾周，留下我們擔心他的安全。這也是裂冰的季節，同行的農場(chǎng)主們都在監視著(zhù)叢林狼、美洲獅、豺狗，當然還有單獨出來(lái)的狼。不過(guò)拉爾夫很幸運。

　拉爾夫在農場(chǎng)上生活的12年間，習慣一直沒(méi)變?？偸潜３种?zhù)距離，容忍著(zhù)其他的寵物，忍受著(zhù)我們家忙碌的生活，但他對貝基的愛(ài)一直沒(méi)有動(dòng)搖過(guò)。

　接著(zhù)春天來(lái)臨了，這時(shí)我們的鄰居告訴我們他開(kāi)**射死了一匹母狼，擦傷了和她一起逃亡的'配偶。當然，拉爾夫帶著(zhù)另一個(gè)子彈傷口回來(lái)了。貝基現在快15歲了，她坐在那兒，讓拉爾夫的頭枕在她的腿上。他肯定也差不多15歲了，隨著(zhù)年齡的增長(cháng)也變老了。當比爾取出子彈時(shí)，我的記憶又回到了很多年前。我仿佛又看到一個(gè)胖胖的三歲小女孩撫摸著(zhù)大大的黑狼的腦袋，聽(tīng)到她輕聲細語(yǔ)，“沒(méi)關(guān)系，寶貝，不要害怕。那是我的媽媽?zhuān)矏?ài)你?！?/p>

　盡管傷不是很?chē)乐?，這次拉爾夫沒(méi)有好起來(lái)。寶貴的體重消瘦下來(lái)，曾經(jīng)舒適的皮毛變得暗淡枯燥，他也不到院里找貝基玩了。他一整天就是安靜地休息，但夜晚一到，盡管他老了，也不靈活了，他就消失在荒野和周?chē)男∩街?。破曉之前他的食物不?jiàn)了。早上來(lái)了，我們發(fā)現他已經(jīng)死了，**的眼睛也已經(jīng)閉上。

　走在橡樹(shù)樁前面，他又出現了，但只是他曾經(jīng)的高傲野獸的影子?？吹截惢鶕崦敲l(fā)粗濃的脖頸時(shí)，我的喉嚨有些哽咽，淚水從她的臉上滾落下來(lái)?！拔視?huì )非常想他的，”她哭著(zhù)說(shuō)。

　接著(zhù)，當我給他蓋上毯子時(shí)，從樹(shù)樁里傳出的沙沙聲嚇了我們一跳。貝基往里看了看。兩只**的小眼睛正瞇眼看著(zhù)我們。小犬牙在半明半暗中閃耀著(zhù)。拉爾夫的幼崽!

　是否臨終前的本能告訴他沒(méi)有母親的孩子在這里會(huì )很安全，就像他當初一樣，有那些愛(ài)他的人們呢?貝基把發(fā)抖的包袱的抱進(jìn)懷中時(shí)熱淚滴在了幼崽的毛毛上。

　“沒(méi)關(guān)系，小……拉爾夫，”她輕聲說(shuō)著(zhù)，“不要害怕。那是我的媽媽?zhuān)矏?ài)你?！?/p>
